I can't wait for a new generation of children to be driven COMPLETELY MAD by the fact that if you don't do this completely insane thing 10 minutes into mario RPG in the middle of, functionally, a cutscene, you have permanently missed your chance to get this chest and frog coin

This is truly the most faithful a remake can be

I hate to be the barer of bad news but...

I experimented with toads walking around. You can still totally get up there if you missed it the first time.

Plus there's the Hidden Treasure signal up above giving away that there's treasure to be found in this area.

Personally, I find that to be a downgrade to the original experience. Hiding that coin in a part of the game you could search around in but would never expect to was the joke. Giving the player so many opportunities to find it, though, just turns it into another Frog Coin. The game's increased ease of access to its optional content, but at the expense of what that content originally expressed.

I agree, but also it would be incredibly rude to make it permanently inaccessible now, given that they give you the signal ring before you come here. The first time you walk into that room, you now know theres a secret hidden somewhere.

You probably still aren't going to get it the first time, unless you already know where it is.

You do have to give up an accessory slot in order to even get the hint, though, and there are already plenty of incentives to use other, better accessories! Doesn't seem like a big deal to me. Not to mention, plenty of people will just look up guides that tell them exactly where to go anyway, if that's what makes the game more fun to them. I don't see the harm!
